Date Ideas in Singapore: A Private Golf Bay Beats Dinner and a Movie
Air-conditioned, indoors, nobody watching, and cheaper than two cinema tickets — for the two of you, for an hour.
Bogey Bros is a private golf simulator bay at #01-41 NEWest, 1 West Coast Drive, Singapore, that doubles as a date spot. It costs $20 to $45 for the whole bay per hour regardless of how many of you turn up, includes clubs and balls, and is open daily 8am to 11pm with instant online booking.
Why a simulator bay works as a date
The problem with most date ideas in Singapore is that they are either passive — a film, a show — or they put you across a table with nothing to do but talk. A golf bay sits in between: there is an activity, it produces things to react to, and there are natural gaps to actually have a conversation.
The private format matters more than the golf does. Because the door locks behind you and there is no staff or other bay in the room, neither of you is on display. Bad swings, terrible music taste and competitive streaks all stay in the room.
- Fully indoors and air-conditioned — weatherproof and haze-proof
- Private bay, no staff, no other players in the room
- Clubs and balls included, no dress code, no experience needed
- One price for the bay, not per person
- Bookable minutes ahead, open until 11pm daily
What to actually do in the hour
An hour is plenty for two people if you give it a shape. A rough plan that works for beginners:
- First 15 minutes — warm up with a mid iron and see who can carry it further
- Next 20 minutes — closest to the pin on a par 3, best of five, loser buys dessert
- Next 15 minutes — long drive contest, which is where the terrible swings live
- Last 10 minutes — add the Hole in One Challenge for $10 and take unlimited swings at $1,000
What a golf date costs against the usual options
A weekday evening hour is $30 for both of you. That is generally under the cost of two cinema tickets, well under a two-course dinner, and it comes with something to talk about afterwards. Weekday afternoons are $20 if you can get away early, and weekends are $45.
If it goes well and becomes a regular thing, hour packages bring it down to about $30 an hour across every time slot including weekends.
Where to go before or after
The bay is on the ground floor of NEWest at 1 West Coast Drive, which has food and drink options on site, and it is a short drive from West Coast Park and Holland Village if you want to stretch the evening out. Clementi MRT is about 14 minutes on foot, and parking at the mall is free.
How much does it cost?
One bay, one price, up to 4 players — you pay for the bay, not per head. Demo clubs and balls are included at no extra cost.
| Rate | When | Per hour |
|---|---|---|
| Weekday Off-Peak≈ $5.00 per person with 4 players | Mon–Fri · 8am–5pm | $20 |
| Weekday Peak≈ $7.50 per person with 4 players | Mon–Fri · 5pm–11pm | $30 |
| Weekend≈ $11.25 per person with 4 players | Sat–Sun · 8am–11pm | $45 |

Where is Bogey Bros?
Bogey Bros is at 1 West Coast Drive, #01-41 NEWest, Singapore 128020 — ground floor of NEWest mall, a 14-minute walk from Clementi MRT (EW23, Exit A). Buses 97, 154, 197, 198 and 201 stop right outside, and there is free mall parking plus free street parking nearby. The bay is open daily, 8am to 11pm, including public holidays.
Frequently asked questions
Is a golf simulator a good date idea?
It works well as a date because it gives you something to do rather than something to watch: you are talking, competing and laughing rather than sitting opposite each other in silence. The bay at Bogey Bros is fully private, so neither of you is performing for an audience.
What if neither of us plays golf?
That is the usual case. Demo clubs and balls are included, there is no dress code, and closest-to-the-pin or long-drive games are more fun with two beginners than two low handicappers. Nobody is watching, so bad swings cost nothing.
How much does a golf date cost in Singapore?
At Bogey Bros the bay is $20 an hour on weekday off-peak, $30 on weekday peak evenings and $45 at weekends — for both of you, not each. That is usually less than two cinema tickets and popcorn.
Is it a good rainy-day or last-minute date?
Yes. The bay is fully indoors and air-conditioned, availability is live on the site, and slots can be booked minutes ahead. It is a reliable fallback when an outdoor plan gets rained out.
Can we bring food or drinks?
The bay is yours for the hour, so you are welcome to bring snacks and drinks in. NEWest has food options on site if you would rather eat before or after.
How long should a first golf date be?
An hour is the right length for a first try. It is long enough to warm up and play a game, and short enough that it does not become a commitment if the conversation is going badly.
